What if retirement were measured in memories as well as money? I share three ideas from Bill Perkins’ Die With Zero that changed how I think about time, experiences, and planning my life.
I explore why some experiences have an expiry date, Perkins’ idea of a peak net worth date, and his “time bucketing” exercise. I also share my own five-year buckets for travel, family, and work. This episode is a personal reflection on the book’s ideas.
